Jun 07, 2017

GUADALAJARA, Mexico — Ossid, powered by ProMach, emphasizes tray lidding solutions at Expo Pack, June 13-15. The company will display the OTS -10 tabletop model for low-volume production, test marketing new products, and/or laboratory production of sample packaging. Company representatives will be on hand to discuss with attendees the OTS-32 for mid-volume production as well as Ossid stretch overwrappers – the 500E leak resistant and 500Si high speed machines for foam or recyclable rigid trays.

“Visitors to the Ossid exhibit will be able to learn more about the continuum of tray sealing options now offered by Ossid,” said Jason Angel, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Ossid. “Expo Pack presents the opportunity for our Latin American customers to strategically plan for the future from a supplier that will support them as they expand in volume and in markets served.”

The OTS-10 table top tray sealer operates at up to 17 trays per minute. The unit at Expo Pack will demonstrate modified atmosphere packaging capabilities, which produce long shelf life for case ready pork, chicken, beef, vegetables, and other fresh foods. The OTS-10 is designed to meet the production requirements of small to medium sized processors. The OTS-10 tray sealer is also ideal for larger processers involved in test marketing products and/or for laboratory production of sample packaging.

Ossid also offers the OTS-32 tray sealing machine for mid-range packaging line speeds. Like the OTS-10, this unit can produce ambient, modified atmosphere, and vacuum skin pack packaging. It is printed film capable and features quick tooling changeover and rugged stainless steel construction. Like all Ossid machines, it offers exceptionally stable and trouble-free operation shift after shift.

Ossid offers more options

Attendees can inquire about the Ossid 500Si high speed stretch overwrapper, which features seamless integration with top and bottom application of decorative labels. The 500Si produces tightly wrapped, PVC case ready packaging at speeds of up to 120 trays per minute. An intuitive HMI ensures ease of operation, and rapid, tool-free changeover between package sizes. The open stainless steel frame and other construction aspects are compatible with the harsh environments of poultry and meat packaging facilities. The 500Si has a relatively small footprint and is ideal for space-constrained environments.

For packaging lines producing high volume leak resistant case ready packaging, Ossid offers the 500E leak resistant overwrapper. This machine is rated at up to 60 tightly wrapped high or low profile trays per minute. The 500E produces trays with a welded, trimmed center seal, allowing for easy printing on both the top and bottom of packages. This machine features electronic motion control for rapid, accurate changeover. Like the 500Si, Ossid offers an automatic indexer that turns these machines into one-operator production stations.

Ossid machines are compatible with lidding and stretch wrapping rigid trays manufactured by leading packaging suppliers. Recyclable rigid trays are a sustainable alternative to non-recyclable, non-compostable foam trays. “For greater flexibility, Ossid machines can be specified to run either type of packaging,” Angel said. “This is definitely a key capability we are looking forward to discussing at Expo Pack.”

Ossid works with companies across Latin America through the ProMach Mexico Shared Services Center in Monterrey, Mexico. The center is a hub for sales, technical support, equipment, and parts stocking (+52(81) 2139 8051). Be sure to visit the Ossid Booth 2506 at Expo Pack.
